In his delightful second memoir, Bruce Coston shares rich stories about the patients and clients who make his veterinary practice so fulfilling. Among these engaging characters, you'll meet Mr. Johnston, the linguist, and his bullmastiff, Mountain of Love: Rachel, the office prankster; Coston's "girlfriend," Megan; and Mischief, his only patient ever to help pay for her own surgery. You'll marvel at the courage of Lisa, Coston's first veterinary technician. And you'll learn how a love for animals helps us all to be more fully human. Book jacket.
